Roy Campanella Oddball Pickup: 1953-55 Dormand Postcard, PSA Authentic

Today's post features one of the remaining Roy Campanella cards I need to complete my player collection of the Brooklyn backstop. Basically everything I need, if not everything, is an oddball release. The below fits perfectly into that mold.


Recently back from PSA is this beautiful 1953-55 Dormand Postcard. These are absolutely stunning and the Campy has been on my radar for some time. I had this one on hold at my old job and finally picked it up before dropping it off at work for slabbing. It came back an Authentic and it's a welcome addition to the collection.


Here's the back, complete with some kid's writing.

  1. Dormand postcards are one of my favorite sets. They are just terrific. I'm jealous that so few players other than Yanks and Dodgers were included. Luckily my guy, Billy Pierce, has one.

    The Campy card is really a great one. Congrats on the pickup!

  2. It's good that someone was able to help all of us future rubes out by noting his position and team on the back, otherwise we may have never known :)
